You motherfuckers are too hard on old Lambo

The season before Lambo took over we were a legit top 5 team with some morale problems.
Lambo proceeded to turn a bunch of stocked rosters into 7-4 seasons. The sanctions were always overplayed. They didn't hurt recruiting that bad (or else we could've never been good in '97) and partially that was because we got them at a time when rosters were drawing down from 95-85.
The reality is that Lambo fucked up in '94 badly. That was a great team. We didn't lose to Oregon because of sanctions. We lost because of incompetence.
Plenty of teams have gone 10-1 or 11-0 on sanctions. Lambo didn't come from 21 points ahead to tie USC 21-21 in '95 because he had sanctions. He did that because he was a moron.
The two years the sanctions should've really fucked us up would've been '96 and '97, but those were our best teams. We had a million draft picks on both.
The reason we were better in '96 was because the coaching error term was brought down with the ability for our team to just fucking run Corey. That was the reason we won 9 games.
The two games we lost were 1) total incompetence (a loss to ASU where we started the wrong QB and the wrong RB) and 2) a team that wasn't prepared at ND.
Sanctions didn't have shit to do with it. We also lost to a fucking Colorado team in the Holiday Bowl because we weren't prepared.
In '97 we were routinely out coached and embarrassed. We had some injuries, but by that time everyone on the team hated Lambo because he was handicapping us.
So, fuck Lambo. Both coaches found mediocrity very quickly. One from the top, the other from the bottom. But neither of them were any fucking good.
There are many coaches who are good, but not elite: Kyle Whittingham, Mike Leach, Bo S, Hayden Fry, Gary Andersen, Bill Snyder, Brett Bielema, etc.
All of those guys would've been better than what either of the clowns we've had were.
Lambo was completely mediocre. If he'd had the program for 20 years we would go 7-5 every year for a while then descend into some 3-8 kind of seasons. We'd be tough, but recruit like shit and have no in game advantage.
Sark would keep us at 7-5 every year (with occasional descent) by recruiting well enough and keeping the whack-a-mole going so that we never sucked at everything at once.
But that's all either of those guys were: mediocre to slightly bad. Not good. Certainly not elite. -

Isn't that 63%?ApostleofGrief said:His head coaching record was 44-25-1, a respectable 57%
Coached under heavy sanctions and bowl ban
Tied for PAC-9 championship
Was a great assistant during the James' years.
He's not going to be the all time hall of fame but **LAMBO WAS A LONG WAY FROM BEING THE WORST COACH**. -

An 11-18-1 record (38%) against ranked opponents. Who fucking ties?
A sterling 1-4 (20%) record in Bowl Games (all shit Bowls, too)
He inherited a roster filled with elite players—Kaufman, Bryant, Bruener, Farr, and Milloy; Solid OL and DL lines— and limp dicked to 7-4 in '93, '94, and '95. Put Oregon on the map. Thanks Lambo!
96: 9-3, padded by a cupcake schedule. 1-3 vs. ranked opponents, including the 34 point rape by #11 Notre Dame. (Thank heavens we? beat the Sark led Mormons)
97: 8-4, ass kickings from UCLA and the Cougs cost UW the Rosebowl. Thanks Lambo!
98: 6-6 ! Highlighted by Nebraska's plungering 55-7, 1-5 vs. ranked opponents, capped off by a 45-25 sodomizing by a fucking service academy in the Oahu classic
99: 7-5. Played only 2 ranked opponents. Holiday Bowl loss. Fired. Neu—say it with me now, "With Lambo's guys"—leads us? to 11-1 (#3 ranking) and a Rose Bowl win
